Things have been more than a little crazy around here, but I will quickly fill in the gist of the details.
Friday, we closed on our house first thing in the morning. We then grabbed some lunch and headed to the airport. Let me tell you: two children, one 5,000 lb carry on, and a three hour lay-over = one very exhausted mama desperately needing a liquor store. LOL We made it in to Aunt Jennifer's waiting arms around 7:30 mountain time. Jeremy, after dropping us off at the airport, arrived in CO on Saturday by 8pm (impressive!).
So, without furniture or a whole lot of lights in the new apartment (no lights in the bedrooms or living room. Pooh), we ended up staying at Jennifer's for a week. We've had a few problems with the apartment office staff (as in they are royal idiots... ) which has caused some angst, but overall, we are pretty content with our choice. We received some bummer news yesterday, though - our moving truck is going to be two days late!! GAH! What makes that part so ultra annoying is that the weather likes to be 75 one day and then drop to 45 the next, so all of our warm clothes are on the moving truck. We had packed a weeks worth of clothing, including one or two warm outfits, but with no washer and dryer... well, you get the picture. A bit of a hassle.
One bit of amazing news to share: WE ARE DEBT FREE!!!!!! WWHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! The feeling is indescribable.
Jeremy flies out Monday for training in TN with Whirlpool (means I will be coordinating movers with two babies alone), and while he is quite nervous, I can tell he is very excited, too.
Things are really going well out here. There is so much to do and see, we don't quite know where to begin. The mountains are huge, the air is dry, the weather crisp, and thus far, so many nice people. And Whole Foods grocery ROCKS! LOL We are feeling quite happy and confident with the road ahead of us.
Pics will come up soon, but thank you all for your love and support. We miss you.
